"We have used Alex to both sell our previous home and to buy our new home. In both instances, she exceeded our expectations. Through her marketing expertise, our previous home sold pre-market above asking price. When we were ready to buy again, we were out of state. Alex toured the home herself while she Face-timed us. We appreciated her insight and followed her advice for an appropriate offer price. Happily our offer was accepted and we are happy home owners again. We highly recommend Alex!""

"Our Realtor Alex Costello deserves 10 stars! We were looking for an affordable home in the hot Petaluma real estate market. We couldn’t find anything for months and our first agent was not very responsive. She has stuck with us as our fortune has turned and we know she has an exact idea of our needs and our budget. She negotiates well and looks for the details that might be an issue later. I have referred her to two friends who bought their homes with her and they are extremely pleased.

"It’s hard to find a house in the Bay Area. Even harder to find a house you want to call home, within budget, and in a community where you can feel like putting down roots. And, yet, this is exactly what Alex helped us do over the summer of 2021. Alex is an experienced realtor who we contacted for her Sonoma county expertise. We’d soon find out her pragmatic, forthright approach to home buying is what we truly appreciated.

"It’s hard to find a house in the Bay Area. Even harder to find a house you want to call home, within budget, and in a community where you can feel like putting down roots. And, yet, this is exactly what Alex helped us do over the summer of 2021. Alex is an experienced realtor who we contacted for her Sonoma county expertise. We’d soon find out her pragmatic, forthright approach to home buying is what we truly appreciated. We knew it was going to be a long, sometimes complicated process and we wanted to be sure we had someone with whom we could collaborate with, ask questions of, and lean on when we felt uncertain. Alex came through on all counts and became a trusted confidant in our search. Alex took the time to understand what we were looking for in a property and in the community where we would call home. She has an intimate knowledge of Sonoma county and the unique characteristics of its cities and towns. When it came time to tour homes, she had done her research, reached out to the listing agent, and was there at our side walking us through the property with her distinct insights. Throughout our home buying process, Alex was not only responsive to texts and phone calls, she took the time to get the answers and explain what they meant. She also respected our budget – the major factor in our purchasing decision. We felt as if Alex was with us each step of the way, working at finding us a home even when we had grown tired of looking or felt discouraged. Alex’s due diligence during the home buying process didn’t stop with the final purchase of the home. She continued to follow up with helpful reminders about paperwork, moving logistics, and even dropped by with a thoughtful house-warming gift on the day we took the keys. We’re so grateful we had Alex to guide us on the journey to our new home.""
